Explain why atoms only emit certain wavelengths of light when they are excited. Check all that apply. Check all that apply. Electrons are allowed "in between" quantized energy levels, and, thus, only specific lines are observed. The energies of atoms are not quantized. When an electron moves from one energy level to another during absorption, a specific wavelength of light (with specific energy) is emitted. Electrons are not allowed "in between" quantized energy levels, and, thus, only specific lines are observed. When an electron moves from one energy level to another during emission, a specific wavelength of light (with specific energy) is emitted. The energies of atoms are quantized.

Electrons are allowed "in between" quantized energy levels, and, thus, only specific lines are observed. FALSE. The specific lines are obseved because of the energy level transition of an electron in an specific level to another level of energy.

The energies of atoms are not quantized. FALSE. The energies of the atoms are in specific levels.

When an electron moves from one energy level to another during absorption, a specific wavelength of light (with specific energy) is emitted. FALSE. During absorption, a specific wavelength of light is absorbed, not emmited.

Electrons are not allowed "in between" quantized energy levels, and, thus, only specific lines are observed. TRUE. Again, you can observe just the transition due the change of energy of an electron in the quantized energy level

When an electron moves from one energy level to another during emission, a specific wavelength of light (with specific energy) is emitted. TRUE. The electron decreases its energy releasing a specific wavelength of light.

The energies of atoms are quantized. TRUE. In fact, the energy of all subatomic, atomic, and molecular particles is quantized.

The reason why atoms emit only specific wavelengths is because the energy levels in atoms are quantized.

Max Plank introduced the idea of quantization of energy in the early 1900s. He introduced the idea that energy can only take on certain specific values. This idea was later extended to atoms by Neils Bohr.

The following statements explain why atoms only emit certain wavelengths of light when they are excited;

When an electron moves from one energy level to another during emission, a specific wavelength of light (with specific energy) is emitted.
Electrons are not allowed "in between" quantized energy levels, and, thus, only specific lines are observed.
The energies of atoms are quantized.
